king and his guard

Looking from a distance, I saw that the gates of the city were guarded strictly by soldiers.

Xue Ai frowned and said: "It seems that getting out of the city is not easy, what should we do?"

Wu Shuang lowered his head in thought, and glanced at a young couple passing by. The young woman was carrying a basket on her arm, laughing and walking along with her husband, with a very intimate look.

From this, Wu Shuang came up with a plan, and said to Xue Ai: "I have an idea, I hope to pass the test."

Xue Ai hurriedly asked: "What idea?"

Wu Shuang said: "We pretend to be a couple."

Xue Ai was surprised now, only thinking that he would have some good ideas.Seeing his hesitation, Wu Shuang said, "Don't worry, I'm here. You just have to listen to me when the time comes."

So the two bought a set of men's clothing and a set of women's clothing at a nearby farm.Xue Ai picked up the men's clothes and was about to put them on, Wu Shuang reached out and snatched them, and by the way put the women's dress in his hand, said with a smile: "This is yours."

Xue Ai was rather displeased, and said sullenly: "Wu Shuang, you asked me to pass the test dressed as a woman?"

Wu Shuang said: "At the moment there is only one side, if you don't want to, then we can only make another plan."

After hearing what he said, Xue Ai lost her mind, so she obediently took the women's outfit and changed into it, and wrapped her hair with a floral towel.

With this simple dress, she really looked feminine. Wu Shuang bought two steamed buns from the farmhouse, and stuffed one on Xue Ai's chest.

Wu Shuang looked at his appearance, but felt an indescribable bitterness in his heart, squeezed his hand and said: "I have wronged you, Xiao Ai."

Xue Ai glanced at the gate of the city, feeling too nervous in her heart, angry and hesitant at the same time, she snorted softly and said: "I'm afraid that if they find out, not only my life will be lost, but also my face will be lost." It's all gone!"

Wu Shuang just changed his clothes and hid the sword close to his body. In fact, he didn't have much confidence, but he just made up his mind. If something was revealed, he would simply lead Xue Ai to kill a bloody road. Xueai must also be preserved.

Immediately took Xue Ai's arm, without saying much: "Trust me this time!"

The two breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward. Soon they came to the gate of the city. At this time, there were many people leaving the city. There was a long line of guards in front of them. The long and rough roar pierced Xue Ai's heart like an awl: "Watch me carefully! Let's go! Follow up!"

Xue Ai moved closer to Wu Shuang subconsciously, Wu Shuang patted him on the back, comforting him softly: "I am here." He hugged Xue Ai's shoulders tightly, trying to bury his head under his armpits, Xue Ai had already heard him There was a pounding heartbeat, and I was even beating faster than him.

Wu Shuang lowered his head slightly, held Xue Ai and walked forward with the people in front. Just as he reached the gate, the head of the guard suddenly came in big strides. stand up!"

Wu Shuang thought: Fortunately, these people don't know me.Then he raised his head and continued on his way. The chief guard pointed at Xue Ai with a knife: "And you! Show your face!"

Xue Ai suddenly panicked, hid under Wu Shuang's armpit and only exposed one eye and secretly glanced at the chief guard. The chief guard walked a few steps closer and was waiting to take a closer look. He said in a low voice: "My lord! This is the villain's wife. There are many malignant sores on her body, bleeding and pus. It hasn't healed for a long time. Why don't I take her out of the city to find a doctor."

Xue Ai coughed at the right time, pretending to be in pain and retching.The head guard hurriedly took two steps back, Xue Ai squeezed her voice and pretended to cry: "Master, I... can't do it anymore..." Wu Shuang hugged him tightly and persuaded: "My lady, don't worry! We two will die Also make a pair of ghost mandarin ducks, anyway, I was also uploaded by you!"

When the chief guard heard that he took a few big steps back, he was extremely disgusted, covered his mouth and nose while waving his hands and urged: "Hurry up and go!"

As if the two were granted amnesty, they rushed out, and when they looked back, they found that there were many people missing around them, and the passers-by who had been with them all hid far away, fearing that they would be passed on by Xue Ai.

The two dared to breathe a sigh of relief, they couldn't help but looked at each other and smiled, Wu Shuang still put his arms around his waist and joked: "Lady, your acting is really good! How did you pretend to be so soft?"

Although the height is comparable to that of Wu Shuang, but at this time she has to pretend to be short and make room for him. Although walking is very strenuous, Xue Ai is sweet and warm in her heart, and said with a light smile: "What's more, you don't know how scared I was just now!" As he spoke, he wanted to struggle to get up.

Wu Shuang pressed him hurriedly and said: "Xiao Ai, don't let anyone see your flaws!"

Xue Ai laughed: "You are reluctant to let go, do you still want to do a fake show?"

Wu Shuang also laughed: "If it's really a couple, it's not bad!" As soon as he said that, he suddenly felt a slip of the tongue, his face turned red a lot, and he let go of Xue Ai hastily.

Instead of being annoyed, Xue Ai became even happier, grabbed his hand and asked, "Wu Shuang, do you really think so?"

Wu Shuang took a step away in panic: "Wu Shuang's words are rude and offended His Highness!"

Seeing his trepidation and trepidation, Xue Ai couldn't express the feeling in her heart. After thinking about it for a while, she sighed softly, took Wu Shuang's arm again, forced a smile and said, "Just take it for once. , at least for now."

"Xiao Ai..." Wu Shuang frowned, holding Xue Ai's wrist lightly with a look of hesitation, and the two of them walked forward without saying a word, but this one was all the same. Full of thoughts.

When we arrived at Tianyong Pass, we still passed the pass smoothly according to the previous method.

After walking for a few miles, there were very few pedestrians on the road. He saw a river running across the road, and there happened to be a small pavilion beside the river. Wu Shuang untied the burden on the stone table in the pavilion, and changed his clothes with Xueai.

Xue Ai sat on the stone bench already out of breath, took a bite of the steamed bun, and couldn't help frowning.

Wu Shuang said: "Xiao Ai wait a moment, I'll go get some water."

Because there was no vessel to hold the water, Wu Shuang saw a reed in the water with very large leaves, so he pulled out a reed and folded it into a cone shape, rolled up his sleeves and scooped water in the river.

The reed leaf looked like a wine bottle in his hand. He gently pinched the bottom of the cup, while holding the edge of the cup with the other hand, held it to his lips and took a sip. The clear river water trickled down the corner of his mouth. He savored it carefully, and smiled at Xue Ai who had been staring blankly in the pavilion: "Taste it, this water is so sweet."

When Xue Ai took the water, her fingertips touched his fingers, he couldn't help hooking those slender fingers, but Wu Shuang dodged them lightly.
